Colin Firth has ‘a problem’ with the British monarchy

Colin Firth is not a fan of Britain’s royal family, because he has “a problem” with “unelected bodies.”

The actor is nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of stuttering King George VI in acclaimed royal drama “The King’s Speech,” while he also won a Golden Globe award for the role earlier this month.

Firth recently admitted he had little knowledge of the story of the troubled monarch before taking on the job, as he is “not a royal watcher” – and now he concedes the concept of the royal family makes him uncomfortable.

During in an interview on “Piers Morgan Tonight,” which is due to air on Friday night, he jokes, “I think they seem very nice… I really like voting. It’s one of my favorite things.”
